About the Oracle Strength Forex Indicator
The Oracle Strength Forex Indicator for MT4 is designed to measure short-term market momentum and directional pressure.
It helps traders identify when strength is entering or leaving the market, which is especially useful for scalping and day trading.
Instead of focusing on price alone, the indicator evaluates internal market behavior and translates it into easy-to-read signals.
The indicator is displayed in a separate window below the main chart as colored histogram bars.
Each color reflects a specific market condition, allowing traders to quickly assess whether buyers or sellers are in control.
Blue bars indicate bullish strength, red bars reflect bearish pressure, and yellow bars signal uncertainty or reduced momentum.
You can use it as a standalone tool or combine it with other technical methods for added confirmation.

Oracle Strength + CCI MTF Forex Scalper Strategy for MT4
This scalping method merges the Oracle Strength indicator and the CCI MTF Signals indicator.
Oracle Strength shows trend strength by colored bars (blue = bullish, red = bearish, yellow = flat).
The CCI MTF adds arrow signals (blue arrow for buy, red arrow for sell).
Together, they help identify quick entries when momentum aligns with trend strength.
This strategy works well on M1, M5, and M15 charts, ideally on liquid pairs like EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, AUDUSD, and EURJPY.
Use it during active trading sessions (London, New York) for the best results.
Buy Entry Rules
- Oracle Strength must show blue bars (indicating bullish trend strength).
- CCI MTF must issue a blue arrow (buy signal) on the same timeframe.
- Enter a buy at the close of the candle that issues the blue arrow (if Oracle Strength remains blue).
- Stop loss: place below the recent swing low, or a few pips below the entry candle, with a buffer (e.g., 5–10 pips depending on the pair and timeframe).
- Take profit: aim for 1× to 1.5× risk (for example, if risking 10 pips, aim for 10–15 pips).
- Alternatively, exit when Oracle Strength changes from blue to yellow or red, or if a red CCI arrow appears.
Sell Entry Rules
- Oracle Strength must show red bars (indicating bearish trend strength).
- CCI MTF must issue a red arrow (sell signal) on the same timeframe.
- Enter a sell at the close of the candle that issues the red arrow (if Oracle Strength remains red).
- Stop loss: place above the recent swing high, or a few pips above the entry candle, with a buffer (5–10 pips or more, depending on volatility).
- Take profit: target around 1× to 1.5× risk, or exit when Oracle Strength changes from red to yellow or blue, or a blue CCI arrow appears.
Advantages
- Combines trend-strength indication (Oracle Strength) with momentum signal confirmation (CCI MTF), reducing false entries.
- Simple visual rules — color bars and arrows are easy to interpret quickly.
- Works across multiple timeframes, so you can adapt to your preferred speed (M1, M5, M15).
- Scalping style keeps trades short, limiting exposure to reversals.
Drawbacks
- When the trend is weak (Oracle Strength yellow), signals may be unprofitable or whipsawed.
- On very volatile pairs or during news, you may get sudden reversals before exit signals trigger.
- Small profit targets can be eaten by spread or slippage, especially on fast timeframes.
- Requires discipline to avoid entering when only one condition is met; stick to both criteria.
Case Study 1: EURUSD M5
During the early London session, Oracle Strength turned blue and sustained.
Shortly thereafter, the CCI MTF issued a blue arrow.
A buy was entered at 1.1132 with a stop loss at 1.1125 (7 pips).
Price moved upward and reached 1.1142, hitting a 10-pip target.
Oracle’s Strength remained blue until near exit. Net gain: approx. 10 pips.
Case Study 2: AUDUSD M15
In the overlap between London and New York, Oracle Strength showed red bars.
CCI MTF then produced a red arrow.
A sell was entered at 0.6785, stop loss set at 0.6800 (15 pips).
The pair dropped, and the price hit 0.6775 before reversal signals appeared.
Exit occurred when Oracle Strength turned yellow.
The trade yielded 10 pips net, about 0.66× risk (since the market was choppy).
Strategy Tips
- Avoid trading when Oracle Strength is yellow (flat) — the signal quality tends to degrade.
- Prefer pairs with low spreads and good liquidity, especially on M1/M5 timeframes.
- Use a small trailing stop once the trade moves into partial profit (for example, trail 5 pips behind price) to lock in gains.
- Do not overtrade — only take signals when both indicators align cleanly.
- Test different stop/target multipliers depending on the pair and timeframe (e.g., slightly tighter targets for M1, slightly wider for M15).
- Avoid trading just before or during high-impact economic releases — they can trigger erratic swings.
